Code Editor Tip: What code goes with what?

Published July 9, 2015 by

The code editor tries to help you see what code groups together. For instance, it draws small lines between matching block beginning statements like IF, SELECT CASE and their closers (END, END IF or END SELCT):

If you click on the lines that match up, all the lines of code in between the opening line and closing line will be selected.

Clicking on the small + icon will collapse the entire block. A second click will expand it again.
